CUPS 1.3.1 is now available for download from www.cups.org and fixes some build, localization, binary PostScript, and Kerberos issues. Fixes include:
* Documentation updates.
* The USB backend on Mac OS X could hang if the driver and printer did not match.
* Delegated Kerberos credentials were not working.
* "make distclean" incorrectly removed the edit-config.tmpl files (STR #2508)
* Fix compile problem on HP-UX (STR #2501)
* The cupstestppd utility now tests for resolutions greater than 99999 DPI to detect a missing "x" between the X and Y resolutions.
* Fixed many problems in the various translations and added a new "checkpo" utility to validate them.
* The cupstestppd utility now tests the custom page size code for CUPS raster drivers.
* cupsLangDefault() did not attempt to return a language that was supported by the calling application.
* If a remote printer stopped while a job was being sent, the local queue would also get stopped and the job re-queued, resulting in duplicate prints in some cases.
* A few Apple-specific job options needed to be omitted when printing a banner page.
* The new peer credential support did not compile on FreeBSD (STR #2495)
* Direct links to help files did not set the current section so the table-of-contents was not shown.
* The configure script did not support --localedir=foo (STR #2488)
* The backends were not displaying their localized messages.
* CUPS-Authenticate-Job did not require Kerberos authentication on queues protected by Kerberos.
* The Zebra ZPL driver did not work with Brady label printers (STR #2487)
* Norwegian wasn't localized on Mac OS X.
* getnameinfo() returns an error on some systems when DNS is not available, leading to numerous problems (STR #2486)
* The cupsfilter command did not work properly on Mac OS X.
* The scheduler makefile contained a typo (STR #2483)
* The TBCP and BCP port monitors did not handle the trailing CTRL-D in some PostScript output properly.
* Fixed the localization instructions and German template for the "Find New Printers" button (STR #2478)
* The web interface did not work with the Chinese localization (STR #2477)
* The web interface home page did not work for languages that were only partially localized (STR #2472)
* Updated the Spanish web interface localization (STR #2473)
* ppdLocalize() did not work for country-specific localizations.
Enjoy!
